Methodology:

An aqueous solution with an excess amount of tetrachloroethene was stirred for one day before being introduced into a one liter glass vessel. Nitrogen entered at the bottom of the vessel through a sintered glass disk. The exit gas flow rate was measured by a soap bubble flow meter. The concentration of tetrachloroethene in water was determined by gas chromatography. The GC was equipped with both a dual flame ionization detector and an electron capture detector.

Sample Information:
